00:00Two, one, action!
00:02Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
00:04When we did this, I thought it was necessary
00:07for the audience to experience
00:09how it would be to go through this.
00:12And to give that feeling, I thought
00:15you can't cut.
00:17I just want a camera that shot them,
00:19that did everything they did.
00:21When the audience sees it, it would be like
00:24they were one of the robbers.
00:25That they were one of the people
00:27who had to do everything with the robbers.
00:31And we never cut.
00:34We take a little break.
00:35We're always there.
00:37It's one single long take.
00:40We've seen so many robberies on film and TV,
00:43but we've never been in a robbery.
00:46And when I've interviewed the real robbers,
00:50I've been struck by how incredibly intense it is.
00:56And I want to capture that, and be in a room
00:59instead of looking at a room.
01:01And that's when the idea came that I wanted it to be
01:04in real time.
01:05And then, when Daniel came on board,
01:07he challenged me to do it.
01:09Okay, it's in real time, but
01:12why should we cut it?
01:14Why not do everything in one take?
01:18Almost everything that's an excerpt.
01:26It's in real time, but why should we cut it?
